IMPROVEMENT IN cHURNs.

4Be it known that I, JOHN RISHER, of Delaware, in the county of Delaware, and in the .State of Ohio, have `invented certain newand useful Improvements in' Churns; and I dohereby declare that the following is a'full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference `being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part 'of' this specification.

In the annexed drawings, A represents a rectangular box, which is provided vwith'a suitablelid, A', sepa-4 rated in the centre. Between the lid-sections A' is an opening, through which passes the dasher-shaft B. Said shaft is formed larger at the lower end, and revolves on a pivot in .the bottom of the box. Upon this` shaft isl a series of arms, C, which are circular in form, and provided with `balls on their extremities. These arms are at right angles with the shaft B, and placed at different angles fr'om each other. Secured to the sidev of the box, and projecting over the top of the same, is a board, D, which is connected to the box by a set-screw, z.

This board has an`arm, D', upon which rest suitable bearings, which support the horizontal shaft E, which said shaft has a crank-handle at the outer end, and a faced cog-wheel,'F,at the inner end. This faced cog F meshes into a faced cog-wheel, a,'upon the top of the shaft B, so that, by turning the cranl, the dnsher shaft,

with its arms, C C, is made to revolve. d represents a shield, covering an air-opening in the lid A', so that ,air

can enter upon the cream in the box, and the cream is prevented from being passed outside. It will be under.-

stood that the' dasher-shaft, with its arms, can readily be-taken from the box whenever desired, by extracting the screw z,'and taking'the board D, with its various appendages, from the box. e

This churn, being simplein construction, practical, and economicahlwill quickly andr surely perform the' functions for which it is designed.

What I claim, isv j The dasher B, with its arms, C C C, constructed as herein described, and used in the box A, in the manner and for the purposes described. I Y In testimony that I claim the foregoing, I have hereunto s et my hand, 'this 21st day of September, 1867. l
